Jack Ellison Poet Quatrain

Poets

Poets have a feel for love
That others don't seem to possess
Our love seems deeper, much more intense
More emotionally charged I guess

Could be just a poet talking
Perhaps a bit bias what I'm saying
Never been accused of playing by the rules
I'm a “spade is a spade” type being 

Now and then I bend my rules
Break out of my mould so to speak
But this does appear so very obvious to me
When us guys are at our peak

As a poet I have an inside track
On the thinking process of us guys
We talk about love with an inner perspective
We know about lows and highs

Poets have a feel for love
We're all quite unique in that way
Most poets can see love wherever they look
Filled with sweet love every day

Joseph Matose October 2, 2013 at 5:06 AM Precise description of poets, Jack. Have never read one vaunting pain and human suffering. Nay, suffering has since time immemorial a leitmotif for Poets who consistently preach love between enemies, love between races, love between brothers and sisters and love between lovers....Great write, Jack. Jack Ellison October 2, 2013 at 5:37 AM Marvellous words describing the ultimate joy in life! There can never be too much love. Thank you once again my friend! Have a great day!!!

Carol Eastman October 1, 2013 at 8:44 AM Dragon sees love for him every where... Grandpa Trolls' still a looking for it... I see love of family and Hubby makes my heart go pitty pat... He gave me a cute little gutter frog... Of course I then said EEEKKK! and ran... But then again... so did the gutter frog when he saw me... No wonder the frogs around here are so Weird... They have a lot to put up with... Gee... And I had thought I'd done sooo well. When I tried to apologize to him... he just climbed a tree, but he was a tree frog... LOL Carol Eastman October 1, 2013 at 10:45 AM Dragon thinks he's the bomb in all those things... We don't want to break his bubble... but he's not... We're still looking... There has to be SOME talent some where... LOL... Jack Ellison October 1, 2013 at 8:55 AM Does Dragon should any creative abilities, like painting, singing or poeting? Do do do do do do do!!!!!!!!
